But DataStaR isn’t a preservation repository...

IASSIST 2009

“...if repository developers and administrators are guided by a reference model, they are more likely to consider the right issues.”

Allinson 2006: OAIS as a Reference Model for Repositories: An Evaluation

“A repository is Trusted if it can demonstrate its capacity to fulfill its specified functions, and if and if those (...) functions satisfy (...) minimal criteria which all trusted repositories are assumed to require.”

DigitalPreservationEurope 2008: Repository Planning Checklist and Guidance

Look at other approaches to implementation

Put TRAC into context

Page 13: Establishing Trust in a Data Curation: OAIS and TRAC

What did DataStaR need...

IASSIST 2009

Three things:

• Data depositor agreement• Set of repository policies• System documentation

Page 14: Establishing Trust in a Data Curation: OAIS and TRAC

Data deposit agreement

IASSIST 2009

Page 15: Establishing Trust in a Data Curation: OAIS and TRAC

Repository policies

IASSIST 2009

Page 16: Establishing Trust in a Data Curation: OAIS and TRAC

System documentation

How did we do?

How did we do?

IASSIST 2009

Number and percentage of TRAC criteria addressed by (agreement, policies, system)

TRAC SECTION

Depositor agreement

Repository policies

System doc/ requirements

A (24 criteria) 6 (25%) 9 (38%) 3 (13%)

B (44 criteria) 4 (9%) 14 (32%) 30 (68%)

C (16 criteria) 0 0 6 (38%)

B (44 criteria) 4 (9%) 14 (32%) 30 (68%)

C (16 criteria) 0 0 6 (38%)

How did we do?

IASSIST 2009

Number and percentage of TRAC criteria addressed by (agreement, policies, system)

• Section A criteria (organizational infrastructure) addressed mainly by policy

How did we do?

IASSIST 2009

Number and percentage of TRAC criteria addressed by (agreement, policies, system)

• Section A criteria (organizational infrastructure) addressed mainly by policy

• Section B and C criteria (digital object management and technologies, technical infrastructure and security addressed mainly (but not exclusively) by system

Page 22: Establishing Trust in a Data Curation: OAIS and TRAC

What didn’t we do?

IASSIST 2009

TRAC SECTION Address at transition to production system

Not relevant to DataStaR

A (24 criteria) 11 (46%) 1 (4%)

B (44 criteria) 0 8 (18%)

C (16 criteria) 10 (63%) 0

TOTAL (84 criteria) 21 (25%) 9 (11%)

We are making an effort to address 64% of the TRAC criteria, in the pilot phase.

Page 23: Establishing Trust in a Data Curation: OAIS and TRAC

Some observations

IASSIST 2009

• Understanding/interpreting the criteria is a lot of work.• The right tools might simplify policy development.• The right software might simplify system specification.• Compiling /presenting evidence: for auditors, or for users?• Picking your partners...

TRAC has a lot to offer, even if long-term preservation isn’t your focus.
